Morello cherries, pomegranate molasses and rosehip. Exotic asian spices of star anise, five spice and fenugreek seed. Oaks show maple leaf and cedar backed by espresso coffee and mace. A thorough line of gathering acidity picks upon some strawberry and rose petals. The wine is quite pure with subtle oak spice on the palate. It fits snugly in the crunchy and alluring Pinot Noir scene. This would be ideal with a speck laced morel mushroom risotto.
